RuPaul’s Drag Race season 17 episode 6 episode and elimination overview

The RuPaul’s Drag Race episode began with a mini challenge featuring RuPaul and Norvina, president of Anastasia Beverly Hills. The queens were divided into teams and tasked with transporting lipsticks through a glory hole. The winning team—Onya Nurve, Suzie Toot, Lexi Love, Sam Star, Lydia B Kollins, and Acacia Forgot—each received a $500 cash tip.

For the maxi challenge, the contestants participated in the "Sea Sickening Ball," where they showcased three different runway looks: "Bathing Beauties" for swimwear, "Sea Creature Couture" inspired by marine life, and "Sea Sickening Eleganza," which required upcycled designs made from marine debris.

During the preparation phase, RuPaul advised several queens on their concepts. He noted concerns about Hormona Lisa’s repeated use of an hourglass silhouette, questioned the fabric choice for Crystal Envy’s dress, and reminded Lana Ja’Rae that her previous design challenge performance was nearly ranked at the bottom due to an unfinished garment.

Tensions rose in the Werk Room when Lexi Love discovered that her tarp had been spray-painted by Arrietty and Onya Nurve. Lexi confronted the group, and while Arrietty admitted responsibility for part of the damage, Onya initially did not acknowledge her involvement. The dispute was later resolved when all parties apologized before the main stage presentation.

On the runway, the judges declared Jewels Sparkles, Lydia B Kollins, Onya Nurve, Suzie Toot, Kori King, and Lexi Love safe. Arrietty, Sam Star, and Crystal Envy received praise, with Arrietty winning the challenge after impressing the judges across all three looks.

Acacia Forgot, Hormona Lisa, and Lana Ja’Rae were placed in the bottom three, with Hormona Lisa and Lana Ja’Rae ultimately facing elimination. Following a Lip Sync for Your Life to "get him back!" by Olivia Rodrigo, RuPaul announced Hormona Lisa as the eliminated contestant from RuPaul’s Drag Race.
